Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2X + 1 + 3X - 2 + 4X - 5 = 180
9X - 6 = 180
9X = 174
9 = 174
ـــــــــــــــــــــ
9 9
X = 19.333
54 216
First look at the difference of the items sold between the 2 people. Clearly Lizzie sold 9 more boxes of peaches and earned 162 more dollars. We can solve and get that each box of peaches are worth 18 dollars. Then use what we found out --> 4 boxes of apples+1 boxes of peaches = 54 dollars. so 4 boxes of apples are worth 54-18=36 dollars. and thus each box of apples are worth 9 dollars.
Answer: each box of apples are wroth 9 dollars and each box of peaches are wroth 18 dollars. Done!
5 2/3 - 1 1/4
5-2 =3
2/3 - 1/4 = 8/12 - 3/12 = 5/12
answer is 3 5/12
If the temperature at 1:00 is x, then Jonestown's temperature at 3:00 is
x-10-8 (since it dropped 10 degrees then 8 more degrees)=x-18
Using x for Cooperville too, we get x-6-2 (since it drops 6 degrees then 2 more degrees) = x-8
Since -8 is greater than -18, Cooperville's temperature is warmer and Jonestown's temperature is lower aka colder<span />
